OGFOD1 is required for breast cancer cell proliferation and is associated with poor prognosis in breast cancer.

ABSTRACT: 2-oxogluatrate and Fe(II)-dependent oxygenase domain-containing protein 1 (OGFOD1) was recently revealed to be a proline hydroxylase of RPS23 for translational termination. However, OGFOD1 is nuclear, whereas translational termination occurs in the cytoplasm, raising the possibility of another function of OGFOD1 in the nucleus. In this study, we demonstrate that OGFOD1 is involved in cell cycle regulation. OGFOD1 knockdown in MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells significantly impeded cell proliferation and resulted in the accumulation of G1 and G2/M cells by decreasing the mRNA levels of G1/S transition- and G2/M-related transcription factors and their target genes. We also confirmed that OGFOD1 is highly expressed in breast cancer tissues by bioinformatic analysis and immunohistochemistry. Thus, we propose that OGFOD1 is required for breast cancer cell proliferation and is associated with poor prognosis in breast cancer.

Project description:Background: Accumulating evidence suggests that circular RNAs (circRNAs) are highly correlated with tumor progression and pathogenesis in breast cancer. Whereas, their regulatory roles and corresponding mechanisms in breast cancer are still not exhaustive. Thus, we intended to establish circRNA-mediated competive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network to uncover the possible roles and clinical implications of circRNAs in breast cancer. Methods: Microarray and RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) data were download from GEO and TCGA database to screen for differentially expressed RNAs (DEcircRNAs, DEmiRNAs, DEmRNAs) in breast cancer. By implementing online databases, we established ceRNA networks, performed gene set enrichment analysis, constructed protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks, and assessed the expression levels and prognostic significance of hub genes. Subsequently, we explored the functions of prognosis-related genes and constructed gene-drug interaction networks. Finally, the functional roles of DEcircRNAs in breast cancer were revealed via MTT and colony formation assay. Results: Based on the identified 8 DEcircRNAs, 25 miRNAs and 216 mRNAs, a ceRNA regulatory network was established. Further analysis revealed that prominent enrichments were transcription factor binding, transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) and Apelin signaling pathway etc. PPI network and survival curves analysis showed that elevated levels of hub genes (RACGAP1 and KPNA2) were associated with poorer prognosis. They were found to be positively relevant to cell cycle and proliferation. Then a prognostic sub-network of ceRNA was constructed, consisting of 2 circRNAs, 4 miRNAs and 2 mRNAs. The gene-drug interaction network showed that numerous drugs could regulate the expression of these two prognosis-related genes. Functional experiments showed that depletion of circ_0008812 and circ_0001583 could significantly inhibit the proliferation of MCF-7 cells. Conclusion: Our study constructed 4 prognostic regulatory axes that are significantly correlated with tumor prognosis in breast cancer patients, and uncover the roles of circ_0008812 and circ_0001583 in breast cancer, providing a new perspective into the molecular mechanisms of breast cancer pathogenesis.

Project description:Purpose:Ovarian cancer is a major type of gynecological malignancy which characterized by the chemoresistance, heterogeneity and highly metastasis. However, the mechanism underlying the progression of ovarian cancer remains elusive. Pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase family plays critical roles in tumorigenesis, and PDK4 has been demonstrated to be an oncogene in many types of cancers. The aim of this study was to identify the role of PDK4 in ovarian cancer. Methods:We explored the PDK4 expression according to the public database containing patients with different effect of chemotherapy. Cell proliferation and invasion assays were used to determine the function of PDK4. Mice xenograft experiment was conducted to test the pro-tumorigenesis function of PDK4 in vivo. Cell apoptosis under treatment of chemo drugs was detected by flow cytometry and TUNEL analysis. Spheroid formation assay and CD133+ cell population were used to determine the PDK4-induced stem-like traits. Immunohistochemical staining was performed to test the expression of PDK4 in ovarian cancer tissues, and Kaplan- Meier curve with log-rank test was performed to determine the association between PDK4 expression and ovarian cancer patients' prognosis. Results:Overexpression of PDK4 markedly promoted cell proliferation, invasion and tumor growth in vivo. Furthermore, PDK4 confers cell resistant to chemotherapy-induced apoptosis. Mechanically, we demonstrated that PDK4 induced stem-like traits. Meanwhile, PDK4 expression was significantly evaluated in ovarian cancer tissues compared to that in adjacent non-cancer tissues, and high expression of PDK4 was associated with poor overall survival and progression-free survival of ovarian cancer patients. Conclusion:These results identify a novel role of PDK4 in regulating cell stem-like trait, which directly enhances the cell proliferation, invasion and chemoresistance in ovarian cancer, and targeting PDK4 could be a potential approach for ovarian cancer treatments.

Project description:Background: The long non-coding RNA Linc00152 stimulates tumor progression in cancer. However, its clinical significance and biological functions in lung adenocarcinoma remains unknown. We evaluate the expression of Linc00152 in lung adenocarcinoma and its possible correlation with clinicopathologic features and patient survival to reveal its biological effects in cancer progression and prognosis. Methods: Total RNA extraction was performed on 110 pairs of lung adenocarcinoma and adjacent normal tissue samples, and then RT-qPCR was conducted. Chi-square test analysis was used to calculate the correlation between pathological parameters and the Linc00152 mRNA levels. Kaplan-Meier and Cox proportional hazards analyses were used to analyze the overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) rates. We also detected the potential functional effects of overexpression and knockdown of Linc00152 in vitro cell proliferation, tumor cell invasion and migration, as well as in vivo nude mouse xenograft and metastasis models. Results: The Linc00152 expression levels were higher in lung adenocarcinoma samples than in the adjacent normal tissues. Linc00152 expression levels tightly correlated with lymph node metastasis station, remote metastasis and TNM staging. The Kaplan-Meier analysis suggested that high Linc00152 expression caused significantly poorer OS and DFS rates, and a multivariate analysis revealed that Linc00152 was an independent risk factor for both DFS and OS. Overexpression of Linc00152 in lung cancer cells stimulated proliferation, tumor cell invasion and migration. Knockdown of Linc00152 inhibited cell growth and cell invasion and migration. Finally, Linc00152 knockdown inhibited lung tumor growth and tumor metastasis in nude mice models. Conclusions: Our study suggests that Linc00152 independently predicts poor prognosis and promotes tumor progression in lung adenocarcinoma. Linc00152 needs to be considered as a potential molecular target in future cancer pharmacology.
